So have you never been outside of Australia, Kerry? Have you ever thought of doing one of those afraid of flying courses?

Oh no!! I sure didn't want you to cry at work Melissa! I don't want you to cry at all!
Het spijt me. :(

I too have noticed that my phobias become more pronounced with age--for example, despite my fears, I made the drive to San Francisco from Austin in 1990, yet felt so overwhelmed just last month with the prospect of forging ahead to Colorado that I felt the need to turn back.
I too don't feel a great impulse to travel. Paradoxically, I'm very interested in geography, history, and other cultures, but usually feel I get most of what I need to know in these areas from reading. I guess you could call me an armchair traveller.

I too am a great one for reading, Scott. And I have a rampant imagination. Nothing I like more than burying myself in a good novel. In the past, I have found that when I went out of my way to travel somewhere, to visit some place I'd read about in a book maybe, I was always disappointed with the reality of what I found. What was in my imagination was always more vivid and fulfilling that reality for me. Guess I'm just a fantasist at heart! :D

I'm from Christchurch, New Zealand, but originally from Calgary, Canada. It sure is a long flight from Chch to Calgary (about 26 hours depending on the length of the layovers), but I'd rather fly than cruise (oh the seasickness...).
